The old man glared at Xiao Yunhe in shock and anger, opened his mouth a few times, and was speechless.

Xiao Yunhe showed a hint of a smile: "These are not nonsense that I am talking nonsense, right? Yan Shizhang and Li Mian are people who are highly respected and loyal. It won't be reused in your hands. At that time, you would rather listen to the words of the blue-faced ghost Lu Sheng, and turn a blind eye to loyal and upright people like Yan and Li. In the end, it turned out. Lu Sheng is a traitor and a scourge. But you still haven't changed your mind to reuse Yan and Li's generation. What does this mean? Not only do you not have the ability to know people, but you also have the ability to use people strategically and self-reflectively. You should be sober when you are in the Imperial City Forbidden Garden-especially when Ma Sui personally wields a knife to kill Dou Wenchang and Wang Xiqian, you should understand. Maybe you will blame these two traitors for being deceived in front of your eyes—but if you look back and think about it yourself, why didn't Emperor Taizong be deceived by such a villain?"

"You, you still have the face to mention Emperor Taizong!" the old man stiffened his mouth and scolded angrily, "You bullied your father and plotted treason, how can the ancestors spare you?!"

"You are ambitious and talented, unlearned, jealous of the virtuous, obedient to villains, scourge loyalty, poison the people, harm the community, and ruin the country!" Xiao Yunhe shouted angrily in righteous words, "The ancestors and ancestors can't be spared." It's you!"

Xiao Yunhe's every word smashed into the old man's heart like a giant hammer, making Chu Yan's body tremble for a while. After Xiao Yunhe finished scolding, the old man actually stood on the spot, looking at Xiao Yunhe with wide eyes. Speechless.

"No one has ever dared to say such a thing in front of you, and no one has ever dared to wake you up. Xiao Yunhe frowned and looked at the old man with eyes like knives. He said in a calm tone, "You yourself have never reflected on yourself. Therefore, if you make mistakes day by day, step by step, you will eventually ruin the entire Great Qi country. If you have it in your hands, it will only accumulate and it will be difficult to return. You don't have the ambition to get by, but you don't fight for a better situation. Your thoughts and deeds are not worthy of the throne. As an emperor, he should create an immortal foundation and benefit the present generation. You don't have the ambition or the ability. You only think that you are in front of the emperor for one day, and if Daqi does not perish, you can even explain it to your ancestors and ancestors. Let me ask: Emperor Taizong, will he spare such an unscrupulous descendant as you? If he had a spirit in the sky, he would definitely want to kill you with a sword, so as to comfort those heroes and martyrs who buried their bones in the green mountains in order to create a prosperous era of Great Qi!"

"You...... You're a fool!" sweat flowed from the old man's forehead, and he stiffened his mouth.

"You're scared, aren't you?" Xiao Yunhe sneered slightly and said calmly, "You didn't expect that someone would know you better than yourself." To tell the truth, if a person like you was born in a peaceful and prosperous era, he would barely be qualified to be a mediocre emperor who was established by the old ways. Unfortunately, after the Anshi Rebellion, the Great Qi Dynasty had already been formed, and the Great Qi Dynasty fell apart and declined. It was at this time that you ascended to the throne. None of the internal and external troubles you can solve. At the beginning, you were also full of ambition to revitalize Daqi. But when you fail in your efforts, you immediately become discouraged and give up on yourself. No one is born to win. If you don't fail, how can you usher in success? Your character and temperament determine that you can't be a good emperor in today's troubled times. Daqi is in your hands, not only can it not be revived, but it will only be terminally ill and difficult to return. When you encounter a crisis, the first thing you think of is to escape. At the time of the Zhu Rebellion, there were only a few thousand mutinous soldiers. There are millions of people in the capital, and they are all your people! You have given up millions of people and have been scared away by thousands of people -- why should the people continue to trust and respect you? This time, you ran away again. I besieged the three gates and let the Xuanwu Gate not attack, just because I intended to open the net. Otherwise, do you think you can get out of the Imperial City? Do you think it is really a coincidence that Ma Sui of the righteous Bo Yuntian let you go in the Imperial City Forbidden Garden? If I send Li Huaiguang to guard there, what will be the end? -- You haven't thought about this! You haven't thought about it at all! You just think that you are the emperor, that you are the mighty emperor of the world, and that everyone will bow down to you. You don't think of other people as human beings, you don't think that everyone has feelings. You never know what it means to be grateful and to be considerate. Thou art incompetent and selfish, unsentimental and arrogant -- everyone has done their best to thee, but thou art angry at the infidelity of others!—have you ever thought about what I said?!!

"I, I ......" In the face of Xiao Yunhe's crazy bombardment, the old man was obviously stunned, as if he was demented.

"A person with a flawed personality, a flawed character, and a person with poor ability will be rejected even in the market. Xiao Yunhe shook his head and sneered, "How can you be a good emperor?"

The old man was already dizzy and timid, and muttered in his heart: How do you feel, he has become my father?!

These words were scolded, and the resentment that had been suppressed in Xiao Yunhe's heart for a long time was almost vented, and he felt a burst of joy. The current situation determines the mentality, if it weren't for the fact that he was now in sight of victory, how could he dare to speak so bluntly to the emperor like this? The old man's face was also blue and red for a while, and he was extremely embarrassed. Although he is not powerful enough as an emperor, for so many years, no one really dares to talk to him like this.

Li Yu was dragged away by Ma Sui a lot, and he couldn't hear the sound of the tent clearly. At this time, the cold scene in the tent was clearly felt. With some apprehension, he approached the tent. Ma Sui wanted to hold him, but after all, it was someone from the royal family who was handling family affairs. The prince went to listen to it, and it was also reasonable......

After a while, the old man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the wolf looked at Xiao Yunhe angrily and said, "Since I am so unbearable in your mind, then you can kill me! Wouldn't it be a pleasure to be a hundred?!"

"If I kill you, I can solve the problem of Qiē, and I can revitalize Daqi from now on, I have indeed done it a long time ago, and I don't have to wait until today. Xiao Yunhe said unceremoniously, "Until now, I really never thought of killing you. Otherwise, the Xuanwu Gate would not be unimpeded, and the Imperial City Forbidden Garden would also become your burial place. I'm not Zhu, and I won't just care about the small interests in front of me. What's more, whether you believe it or not, I don't want another cannibalistic tragedy in the Imperial City. Family affection, the most indifferent thing for the royal family, occupies a very important place in my heart. ”

"Joke! Hypocrisy!" the old man sneered and shook his head.

"I didn't make you believe it, and I didn't try to win your understanding and sympathy. Xiao Yunhe calmly shot back, "I just want you to see the shape under your eyes and make a smart choice." A choice that is beneficial to yourself, to everyone, and to the world. This is the core of the Yiqiē incident. To this day, I hope you can stand a little higher like a true emperor. Think about the big picture for once. Whether you can put aside prejudices and selfish thoughts will be the key to deciding a qiē. ”

The old man's eyes rolled for a while, and he suddenly burst out laughing: "Haha, I understand! You don't dare to kill me at all! You are afraid that the people of the world will not let you go, and you are afraid that the people of Daqi will rise up against you! You hypocritical ambition has taken a piece of Qi from my hands, and in the end you will use me." I also want to stand up and vindicate your name—don't think about it!"

Xiao Yunhe sighed and shook his head helplessly: "No way, you are such a person with a heart like a needle." I shouldn't expect you to make a decision that is based on the bigger picture. It seems that all the qiē I have done has been in vain. You don't understand my hard work at all, and you haven't thought about the overall situation of this great world. You've disappointed me so much!disappointment!utterly disappointed!"." Xiao Yunhe was ready to raise his feet and leave, wanting to catch him.

"Brother Huang...... Please wait a minute!" Li Yu opened the curtain and suddenly broke in, blocking Xiao Yunhe.

"Chant ......"

"Prince?"

"Father, just now you and the imperial brother's conversation, the sons and daughters heard it. Li Yu's face was silent. Said very seriously, "Erchen thought...... Brother Huang's words are very reasonable. Father seems to be. It should be carefully considered. After all, this is not only our family matter, but also a serious decision related to the safety of the whole situation. At this time, we should put aside some personal grievances and prejudices, and look at and think about the current problems from the standpoint of the world. We are the descendants of the Li family, and we have the blood of Emperor Taizong in our veins. We should all feel ashamed and blame ourselves for the situation that has become the case today, and we can no longer let Daqi and the people suffer disasters. To this day, the father ...... Please take a look at the big picture!"

"Li, Li Xuan! Even you came to help him accuse and count me?" the old man was really a little unexpected. Shocked and angry, he said, "Are you crazy? He is going to oust his father from the throne and kill our father and son!"

Xiao Yunhe sneered helplessly and stood aside silently.

The old man sighed and said, "I believe in Brother Huang...... I wouldn't do anything like that. Otherwise, the father and the son. How could he still live to this day? Does my father think that Ma Sui really had the ability to capture the Han King into the national capital? Ma Sui was impressed by the loyalty and courage of the King of Han at that time, and privately decided not to let the King of Han enter Beijing. However, at that time, the king of Han looked at the world, in order not to bring civil war losses to Daqi, and strongly insisted on entering Beijing with Ma Sui regardless of death. This kind of mind and courage, Erchen really admires it. Compared with him, are our father and son too short-sighted and narrow-minded? We only think about maintaining our own position and do not think too much about the overall interests of the whole world. Moreover, our eyes and hearts are constantly becoming shallow and narrow. The people rebelled and left, one wrong step, and the overall situation was chaotic. Today, father, we really don't have the face to occupy the position of emperor and prince anymore. It's not the king of Han and the people of the world who bear us...... It's us who lost everyone first!"

Xiao Yunhe's eyes widened in astonishment, and he looked at Li Yu, who was usually silent and unsmiling, and looked honest.

It seems that he is indeed much smarter and calmer than the emperor.

The old man also pointed at Li Yu with trembling fingers, and muttered: "Chanting, chanting, have you been subjected to a ghost? How can you say such a thing to me? Are you crazy?! Have you let me not be the emperor and I am not the prince, and all of them will be given to this ambitious villain? In the future, how can we explain to our ancestors and ancestors when we go underground?"

Li Yu shook his head and showed a wry smile: "Leave the matters explained to the ancestors and ancestors to the King of Han! Father, ask yourself, our father and son really don't have the courage and ability to run the world and expand the territory. My father has been emperor for several years, but has he really done anything to comfort the ancestors of the Li family? No! The power of the rebel party in Huaixi is getting stronger and stronger, the four towns of Hebei are unobedient, and there are so many envoys in the world, who still puts the court of Darang in the first place in their hearts? Not to mention the barbarians of Tibet and the Uighurs. Over the years, my father was chilled when he heard the name of Tibet, and when he saw the envoys of Tibet, he had to lose three points of confidence. However, the king of Han defeated Tubo in Xichuan in a row, and the plateau hero Chisong Dezan lost his armor and almost died. Since then, the barbarians in the southwest have been attached to the Great Qi and have no more hearts, and the Tubo people have retreated to the plateau and only dare to recuperate from their injuries. Daqi regained the position of the southwestern hegemon that had been lost for decades...... Father. While we are afraid of the Han King, who has made great achievements, we should feel ashamed and ashamed! The Han King was exiled by his father at that time! The situation in Jiannan and Xichuan was still chaotic and wars were frequent, and no one was willing to take over there. However, after the arrival of the Han king, he not only quickly stabilized the situation and repelled the foreign humiliation, but also let Xichuan stay in just a few years. Become one of the richest regions in the world. Father, we don't have this kind of talent in both civil and military affairs and the economic world!"

The old man opened his mouth and looked at Li Yu in a daze, speechless. Xiao Yunhe also stood aside with his hands in his hands. calmly looked at the excited Li Yu, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

"Father......" Li Yu continued, "If, I just said if, this time we succeeded, and got rid of the King of Han...... What can it do? As long as the king of Han dies. The world will be more chaotic and out of control than we expected. Even if Ma Sui still can't bear to stand up against his father in the end, with his righteousness and generosity, he will definitely die to thank the world. The only person we can rely on is lost. The other three marshals such as Li Sheng. Even if we can't return to the festival, their people can't spare us. Nishikawa ...... Not to mention Nishikawa. There, in addition to more than 100,000 of the most elite tiger and wolf divisions in the world, there are also tens of millions of people who will want to avenge the king of Han! Father, the sons and daughters are very glad that they know now? I am very glad that the king of Han is the one who has succeeded! Because he must succeed! Only when he succeeds can he exchange peace and hope for the land of Daqi! What is the meaning of this emperor and the crown prince if they continue to be in office? Not only can we not bring benefits to the people of the world, but we have also become the biggest cancer and burden of Daqi!

"Crazy, crazy. You're really crazy......" The old man froze and muttered to himself.

Xiao Yunhe's expression was still very calm, but he sighed in his heart: Li Yu, there is still a little wisdom and conscience. He understands the rules of success and defeat better than the emperor, and is more aware of the guilty...... It's a pity. Li Chan. Maybe when you ascend the throne, you will be much stronger than the old man. But. I can't wait, and Daqi can't wait. I prefer to believe in myself rather than naively pin my hopes on you. If it weren't for the inherently hostile position, Li Yu, maybe we could really be good brothers. After all, you can understand my hard work. In this respect, you are a confidant of mine. I don't know if what you're saying now is true or not.

Li Yu also seems to have talked about the emotion, and said the deepest thing in his heart. He took his steps slowly, and said as if no one was around: "Actually...... Erchen has always been jealous of King Han. Jealous that he can lead the army to kill enemy bandits, jealous that he can use his military ambition in the frontier with great courage. Son, but he can't do such a thing. Although I am also saddened by the current situation of Daqi, I am also full of ambition to revive Daqi...... However, the retainers must first follow the command of their father and do everything according to their father's instructions. Erchen, it's really very contradictory, very contradictory. In terms of positions and interests, Erchen and the King of Han seem to be natural opponents and can only be hostile. However, Erchen even wanted to fight side by side with him, fight against Tibet together, manage the people's livelihood together, and deter the barbarians together. It's a pity that Erchen will never have such an opportunity. I can only watch King Han make amazing deeds and create countless great achievements. Compared with him, what is left of the sons and daughters except for the title of prince? What have I done for Daqi? Nothing! I can only follow my father to do some villainous things, and calculate the Han King who has made outstanding contributions to the world! Father, we are really wrong, very wrong. In the imperial power, there has never been a shortage of intrigues. However, no matter how much infighting there is, the bottom line cannot be touched -- and this bottom line is that it must not harm the world. Calculating the king of Han is to bring disaster to the world. Therefore, we are doomed to be defeated by all the betrayals. For the current Great Qi, King Han is more important than our father and son. Let's talk about the simplest one -- if the king of Han dies, who will he send to run Xichuan? Will the emperor go there himself? No one will be able to do it! If the people of Xichuan do not agree, even the barbarian countries of Nanzhao and Dongnu will be in chaos again. Not to mention Tubo, with the Han King here, Chisong Dezan will never dare to make a second positive eye to underestimate Xichuan. However, as soon as the king of Han is destroyed, he will be unscrupulous! When the time comes, who will be able to stop the sons? Will the father and the emperor himself? I am afraid that we will have to cut the land and sue for peace -- will we use this method to survive in a corner of peace? Will we use such feats to go underground to face the ancestors and ancestors of the Li family? !

The old man's face trembled as if he was dead, and he muttered, "I can't think of it...... In your mind, I am so incompetent!"

Li Yu let out a long sigh and said with some reluctance: "To tell the truth, compared to King Han, our father and son are indeed too incompetent. Prosperous times are long, and troubled times are virtuous. King Han was born for the current Great Qi. Father, we ...... It's better to follow the destiny of heaven and make the right choice. Rather than fish and die and the net is broken, neither of them can benefit, and the world of Daqi is more and more out of control...... It's better to be wise and abdicate to make way for Xian. In this way, it may be the only good thing we can do for Daqi. Whether the King of Han is more qualified than us for the heavy responsibility of dominating the universe will be judged at that time. If he can't, all the people of the world and future generations will naturally not be able to spare him, a traitor who is a traitor to the country and forcing the palace; if he is stronger than us, he will indeed do a good job...... Father, we can still win some fame. After all, we are based on the world of Daqi and have made the right choice. ”

The old man's whole body stiffened, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "Actually...... We've run out of options, have we?"

Li Yu and the old man looked at King Han who was standing quietly on the side.

Xiao Yunhe twitched the corners of his mouth slightly: "I won't force you." ”

The old man sneered: "How do you still force it? Take a sword and put it on my neck, is it a force?!"

Xiao Yunhe said indifferently and quietly: "That's the situation. ”

The old man was both annoyed and helpless. The victorious posture of the King of Han made him quite resentful. However, he also had a feeling of powerlessness. In fact, he is not stupid, but a little unwilling. He always thought that he had accidentally fallen into the conspiracy of the Han King.

"Don't be convinced. Xiao Yunhe pulled the corners of his mouth and said calmly, "Your fate is destined to be like this." Instead of letting outsiders eat away at the Great Qi and let the Li family sink, it is better for me to revive Li Tang's prestige. No matter what, you're not going to make a losing trade. Actually, you are not happy about this emperor. Except for this place in Guannai, where do you really take you, the emperor, in your eyes? This has to be said to be a kind of sadness. You can fool anyone, but you can't fool yourself. You are on the throne, and it is difficult to ride a tiger every day. Rather than this, it is better to enjoy the comfortable life of the Emperor Taishang in peace and stability, and leave this bunch of troublesome things to me to deal with. As the prince said, if you don't handle it well, the infamy is mine, and if you handle it well, you have to get a clear name. Why not?"

"You are really hypocritical and treacherous. The old man's face was full of anger, "No matter how unhappy I am as an emperor, it will not be your turn to usurp the throne." You're a shameless snatch!"

On the side, Li Yu took over the conversation: "Father...... Although Erchen has the ambition to revive Daqi, he thinks he doesn't have the ability to really do it. Since the imperial brother has the courage and ability, let him come. Erchen is really willing to give up. The rivers and mountains of Daqi are really like a hot mountain now. Erchen ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to take it. Why did my father hold it tightly in his hand and refuse to let go?"

The old man's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at King Han deadly. Xiao Yunhe also met his eyes without flinching, not giving an inch.

The eyes of the two collided in a fierce conflict in the void. It's like fighting to the death.

After a long time, the old man blinked a few times and looked away.

Xiao Yunhe secretly sneered in his heart.

The old man finally sighed and said, "That's it...... That's it, Destiny is like this, and I have nothing more to say. Xiao Yunhe...... Oh no, I'm going to call you Li Mo now! You don't want to use the name I changed for you anymore, do you? I hope you can really do what you said and be able to run Daqi well. Otherwise, our Li family will have one more disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unrighteous person! I will watch you do this thing, and the people of the world will also watch your every move. You'd better not fantasize about being a tyrant or a dumb one. Otherwise, no one will be able to spare you. ”

Xiao Yunhe's heart was shocked. A star flashed in his eyes. But he was still calm, and said indifferently: "Don't worry, I will do my best." ”

"Hey!-" Xiao Yunhe hammered his thigh hard, shook his head and sighed. He hung his head in annoyance for a moment, then looked up. Said slowly: "The only thing I am glad about is ...... The great Qi land has not yet fallen into the hands of his surname. Li Mo, Li Mo, you are a member of the Li family after all. Don't forget the hardships of the ancestors of the Li family. I have lived this life...... It is true that nothing has been done that is truly beneficial to Daqi. At the end of the day, I have to fulfill you once, and make a big gamble. As you wish, I am willing to give you the country and the mountains to make a smooth transition of imperial power. In this way, the world of Daqi may have fewer twists and turns and more peace. It's hard for you to figure it out, no matter how weak and incompetent I am. In the hearts of the people of the world and the people, it is still irreplaceable emperor orthodoxy. I understand that the overall situation has been decided, no matter what I do, it is only a matter of time before you ascend the throne and become emperor. At this time, you can still take care of the overall situation of the world and take into account the slightest bit of flesh and blood. I still have to thank you. Let's go back to the capital! Back to the capital, let's come step by step. The imperial capital was in turmoil. Li Xilie of Huaixi and the four kings of Hebei, including the Tubo people who are eyeing the tiger, will definitely take advantage of the situation to cause chaos. I heard Ma Sui say that you have transferred more than 100,000 troops into Beijing, and it seems that you have also made preparations. No matter what, in the face of foreign enemies, our Li family is a family after all. After returning to Beijing, I will appoint another prince and let you enter the East Palace. After the turmoil in Huaixi, Hebei and other places temporarily subsided...... I, I will give you the throne. ”

Xiao Yunhe and Li Yu bowed down solemnly at the same time: "Your Majesty is wise!"

"Be wise or foolish...... That's it, there's no need to say more. The old man's face was as dead as ashes, and he waved his hand dejectedly, "I'm tired and want to rest quietly alone." Stand down, all of you. ”

Xiao Yunhe and Li Yu retreated. The two of them came out of the tent and exhaled in unison.

Then, the two looked at each other, each showing a playful smile.

The night was already very deep, Ma Sui and the others retreated far away, and the surroundings were extremely quiet. The old man's figure was reflected in the tent, swaying. It seems that he is still sitting and not sleeping.

The two of them paced slowly, each full of thoughts, and did not know what to say.

"Brother Huang......" Li Yu broke the silence first, "Our brothers, it's been a long time since we've been together like this quietly. ”

"Yes......" Xiao Yunhe nodded lightly, "I haven't had since I left the capital and entered Sichuan." ”

"So much has happened...... It's very helpless!" Li Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Becoming a king or losing a king, such an ending may be the best." At least, better than I expected. ”

"Expected?" Xiao Yunhe frowned slightly.

"Yes......" Li Yu sighed softly and said, "Since the news of the first Xichuan victory came, I expected that you would be the victorious side. And my father and I will be defeated at your hands sooner or later. So, our father and son, hopelessly, embarked on a road of no return - that is, to get rid of you. ”

"Is the road of no return...... Xiao Yunhe smiled slightly, and said secretly in his heart: It turns out that I am not the only one who has embarked on this road. Creation makes people, and the current situation determines life. Perhaps from the moment I was reborn, we were all on the road of no return. Maybe between us. There is no right or wrong, only who wins and who loses. This is our fate!

Li Yu continued to say calmly: "But the more I got back, the more I felt that we were doomed to fail. My father and I have gradually rebelled and separated, and you are growing stronger day by day, and the people of Daqi have high hopes for people. Such a situation makes me afraid, timid, and panicked. I've made up my mind more than once. I want to persuade my father to give up the competition with you...... Take the initiative to give you the throne. But I didn't. Because I know my father, he can't get rid of this face. I can't tolerate it, and I will accept defeat if I am so light. ”

Xiao Yunhe smiled: "The emperor is very strong and competitive. But. But there is always no way to win. So, he was often annoyed and angry. Actually, he was also a poor man. ”

"Yes, Father, it's really pitiful. The old man's expression showed a lot of sadness and pity. said lightly, "Except for me, no one knows how miserable he is every day." Actually, when I was a small land. At that time, my father had just ascended the throne. At that time, the father and emperor were full of ambition to revitalize Daqi, and he also made a lot of efforts. But what greeted him was only failure after failure. Gradually, he began to become discouraged and lose his fighting spirit. The whole person has also begun to change. Initially, he also trusted the minister to appoint meritocrats. But Zhu was in turmoil. It hit him hard. At that time, the Manchu civil and military forces either fled or surrendered, which made him both sad and angry. At that time, the eunuchs who escorted him from the palace were Huo Xianming, Dou Wenchang and so on. And so since then. He began to trust the ministers less and more to the eunuchs. And then you know. At the time of Mukden. Lack of food and materials, Princess Tang'an also died due to lack of medicine...... Since then, his father has become greedy and eccentric, and he is bent on accumulating money. At the same time, they don't trust anyone very much...... Because, Li Huaiguang, who came to the rescue, can also rebel. Actually, my father is really pitiful. How can a person who has experienced so many things not collapse? It is not easy for him to hold on to it to this day. So...... Brother Huang!"

Suddenly, Li Yu knelt down on his knees at Xiao Yunhe.

Xiao Yunhe was shocked, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull Li Yu up: "Prince, get up, what is this for?!"

"No!" Li Yu shook his head stubbornly, raised his head and stared at Xiao Yunhe seriously, and said word by word, "Brother Huang must agree to my request." Otherwise, I would have died here on my knees today, never to get up. ”

Xiao Yunhe threw his head helplessly and sighed, "Say it." ”

Li Yu looked at Xiao Yunhe expectantly and said, "Brother Ask the Emperor...... Let my father and Emperor Xià be able to live out this life and spend their old age in peace!"

Xiao Yunhe's heart twitched slightly, and nodded: "I don't need you to say it, I will do the same." Get up quickly! You are the national prince kneeling for me like this, what kind of system do you become?"

Li Yu stood up, his expression was quite excited, and his voice trembled a little: "Brother Huang...... Will you really grant me this request?"

"Yes. Xiao Yunhe looked at Li Yu sincerely and said seriously, "Whether you believe it or not, what I said to the emperor before was sincere." I don't want another cannibalism in the Imperial City. At the same time, the emperor is an intangible and huge wealth to me, how can I be mad and disadvantageous to him? In fact, if there is no conflict of interest between me and the emperor, I may be able to become a real father and son, and we will know each other. It's just that...... It takes time. It will take time for the Emperor to resolve the knots in his heart. I believe that one day will come. Because, I'm really sincere. I would treat him like my true father. ”

"Good...... Okay!" Li Yu's eyes welled up with tears like this. Lips trembled.

Maybe it was too embarrassing, he suddenly turned around, took a long breath to stabilize his tone, and then said indifferently: "After returning to Beijing, please ask the imperial brother to clean up the East Palace and move in as soon as possible." The willow lotus pond next to the Cheng'en Hall is about to send someone to clean up the silt. After summer and autumn, the lotus leaves will die, and the smell will be terrible. In the Chongwen Palace, it was being renovated before, because it was too old, and it was cold in winter. It's a good place to read. There are still many talented scholars in the Chongwen Pavilion. Brother Huang can ...... Choose the right person. ”

"Hmm...... Thank you. Xiao Yunhe nodded. Suddenly, I felt a little sour in my heart.

"Lu Zhen, Wang Pi, and Wang Shuwen are all loyal ministers and good talents. Li Yu's voice was already a little choked, "This time, they also followed me and came out with my father." I will persuade them to switch allegiance to the Imperial Brother. Brother Huang, please...... Be kind and make good use of these people. ”

"Don't worry, I will. Xiao Yunhe's voice was also very soft, for fear of alarming the weakest nerve in Li Yu's heart.

"That's ...... I will have no resentment. Li Yu tilted his head, trying to stop the tears that flowed out. The two of them stood there silently for a long time.

After a long time, Xiao Yunhe said, "Where do you want to go?"

"Nishikawa. To Xiao Yunhe's surprise, Li Yu replied very simply. The new crown prince, the old prince will definitely end up in exile and house arrest. Such an unspoken rule does not need to be elaborated. Xiao Yunhe and Li Yu tacitly did not mention it directly.

"Oh?" Xiao Yunhe exclaimed slightly.

Li Yu turned his back to Xiao Yunhe and showed a self-deprecating smile: "I want to go to the old place of the imperial brother to have a look." There, I think I will better understand where the royal brother is so good and where the gap between us is. What's more, the country of Xichuan Tianfu has the imperial brother's heavenly power coming, and it will also be the most peaceful place in the world. Will you promise me?"

"I've promised you. Xiao Yunhe sighed lightly in his heart: Li Yu, thank you! You have chosen a place that reassures me the most. Exile you to Nishikawa and put you under house arrest...... There, you will receive the best kind and courtesy.

The night was very deep, and Xiao Yunhe planned to spend the night in this small mountain col first, and then ask Ma Sui to escort the emperor back to Beijing tomorrow morning. Since the troops were only out on patrol and did not bring too much baggage, the tent where the emperor and the crown prince lived was temporarily returned to the barracks to get it. Most people can only sleep in the open. Xiao Yunhe was injured and went back to the carriage to rest.

As soon as he entered the carriage and was about to rest, he heard the guards of the Han Wang's Mansion who accompanied him outside shouting: "Who is it? Stop!"

"It's me, Princess Wen'an!" a childish voice sounded.

Xiao Yunhe's heart moved slightly: It's Wen'an......

He lifted the curtain of the car window and said outside, "Let her come - Wen'an, come quickly." Brother Huang is here. ”

In the torches of the night, a tall girl wearing pink palace makeup walked over slowly. Xiao Yunhe looked at it from a distance and was secretly surprised: I haven't seen you for a few years, Wen An has grown into an adult...... The body and appearance are quite outstanding!

Wen An walked to the carriage and saluted respectfully: "Wen An has seen the imperial brother ......"

"Uh...... Get up. Xiao Yunhe was stunned for a moment: Is this still the girl who drilled into his arms and then played with the armor and hat when he was in Mukden?

The appearance of Princess Wen'an inadvertently touched the softest place in Xiao Yunhe's heart.

"Thank you, Brother Huang. Wen An stood up, glanced up at Xiao Yunhe, his big eyes flashed a few times, and he seemed to have something to say, but he lowered his head again.

"Come, come into the carriage and talk to the royal brother. Xiao Yunhe stretched out his hand to Wen An.

Princess Wen'an hesitated, bit her lip, stretched out her hand to be led by Xiao Yunhe, and boarded the carriage.

The carriage was wide. Although the decoration is simple, it is very comfortable. Princess Wen'an knelt opposite Xiao Yunhe, hung her head low, and didn't say a word.

"What's the matter, Wen'an?" Xiao Yunhe tried to make his voice as gentle as possible, "When you were with the imperial brother before, you weren't like this. Why are you so detained today?"

"Will you kill me?" Princess Wen'an suddenly raised her head and looked at Xiao Yunhe in horror and a little angry.

Xiao Yunhe was slightly startled: "How could it be? Why do you want to ask that?"

"Then will you kill your father and the crown prince's brother?" Wen An asked repeatedly.

Xiao Yunhe sighed lightly: "No." I never thought about it. To hurt them. ”

"But you've already hurt them!" Wen An's immature voice was a little resentful, "Just ...... The father and the crown prince and brother hugged their heads and cried. Crying so sadly. I've never seen them cry so sadly. ”
